Part 1. Time-Conscious Urban Design: 1. Introduction: the unsustainable lasting of time-unconscious urban design/ 2. Time-conscious urban design: a common ground/ Part 2. Analysis for the Sustainable City: 3. Analytical techniques for a sustainable city: kicking off the toolbox/ 3.1. Practicing an oxymore/ 3.2. The tools/ Conclusions/ Index/
* This is the first significant book to draw together a pan-European view on sustainable urban design with a specific focus on social sustainability. It presents an innovative approach that focuses on the tools of urban analysis rather than the interventions themselves.

Contents
1.The Urban Ecosystem/ 2.Humans as Components of Ecosystems/ 3.Urban Patterns and Ecosystem Dynamics/ 4.Land Use and Land-Cover Change/ 5.The Water Cycle/ 6.Biogeochemical Cycles/ 7.Atmosphere and Climate/ 8.Population and Community Dynamics/ 9.Patterns, Processes, and Scale/ 10.Urban Ecology: A Synthesis/ index/
* The future of Earth's ecosystems is increasingly influenced by the pace and patterns of urbanization. One of the greatest challenges for natural and social scientists is to understand how urbanizing regions evolve through the complex interactions between humans and ecological processes. Questions and methods of inquiry specific to our traditional disciplinary domains yield partial views that reflect different epistemologies and understandings of the world. In order to achieve the level of synthesis required to see the urban ecosystem as a whole we must change the way we pose questions and search for answers. *

* This book addresses the role of railways in urban development. The central aim is to inquire into how especially the development of high-speed rail and light rail links will affect European cities. The analyses are carried out with special attention given to the broader institutional environment of the railway system, including the shift toward privatised railway companies, internationalisation, the occurrence of market and government failures in land markets, and private-public partnerships in the development of railway station areas. *
